In  the  name  of  God  !  Amen  ! 

Stand  for  our  Southern  rights  ; 
On  your  side  Southern  men, 

The  God  of  battles  fights  ! 
Fling  the  invader  far — 

Hurl  back  their  work  of  woe — 
The  voice  is  the  voice  of  a  brother, 

But  the  hands  are  the  hands  of  a  fo<?. 
They  come  with  a  trampling  army, 

Invading  our  native  sod — 
Stand  Southrons,  fight  and  conquer  1 

In  the  name  of  the  mighty  God  ! 


They  are  singing  our  song  of  triumph, 

Which  was  made  to  make  us  free, 
While  they  are  breaking  away  the  heart-strings 

Of  our  nation's  harmony. 
Sadly  it  floateth  from  us, 

Sighing  o'er  land  and  wave, 
'Till  mute  on  the  lips  of  the  poet ; 

It  sleeps  in  his  Southern  grave. 
Spirit  and  song  !  departed > 

Minstrel  and  minstrelsy  ! 
We  mourn  thee  heavy  hearted! 

But  we  will,  we  shall  be  free  ! 


They  are  waving  our  flag  above  us, 

With  the  despot's  tyrant  will, 
With  our  blood  they  have  stained  its  colors, 

And  call  it  holy  still. 
With  tearful  eyes,  but  steady  hand, 

We'll  tear  its  stripes  apart, 
And  fling  them  like  broken  fetters, 

That  may  not  bind  the  heart — 
But  we'll  save  our  stars  of  glory, 

In  the  might  of  the  sacred  sign 
Of  Him  !  who  h*s  «-- J  i0rever 

Our  "  Southren  Cross"  to  shine. 


Stand  Southrons,  6ght  and  conquer  ! 

Solemn  and  strong  and  sure  ! 
The  fight  shall  not  be  longer 

Than  God  shall  bid  endure. 
By  the  life  that  only  yesterday 

Waked  with  the  infant's  breath  ! 
By  the  feet  which  e'er  the  morn  may 

Tread  to  the  soldier's  death  ! 
By  the  blood  which  cries  to  heaven  ! 

Crimsou  upon  our  sod  ! 
Stand  Southrons,  fight  and  conquer 

In  the  name  of  the  mighty  God'
